Hey, everyone, I thought I would just pass a word along. Today, Saturday, is Wet Granola’s birthdate. Pop in on her blog or leave a happy birthday comment for her here.

 
 Happy Birthday, Stacey♥  Hope
you’ve had a happy one!   
Love you, sister ~

Came across this when checking email and it seemed so timely for a couple of my nearest and dearest who are having to persevere and endure. (actually me too!)  So…..just had to share.  
MORE THAN GRATITUDE
Becky had often heard the little saying, “Have an attitude of gratitude,” and for the most part she did. She could count [...]

Shamelessly begging…..

for you to pray for my dear friend.  She began her chemo the second week of this month and of course the side effects have begun.  I know she can make it through this, but she needs every drop of strength she can get from the prayers of the saints.  The following is an email [...]

Pray for Christy

Well, I’ve been asking for prayer for my friend Christy (she is in her third occurence of colon cancer).  Just spoke with Nancy the OM and here’s the plan.  Tomorrow Christy will get her port in–that way, not so many bad needle sticks.  This is the beginning of 5 1/2 weeks of chemo and radiation.  [...]

Tax Day Surprise

Aren’t these flowers beautiful.  Again, thanks to the dear friend who brightened my day last week. 

A big thank you

I owe a great big thank you to Maggie for making me pretty.  She used the stripes in my bag (see post below) and jazzed it up to make it me!  I was so excited.  It’s like having a new outfit on.  So, Maggie, THANKS a bunch.  (you still have to teach me to do [...]

Need prayer intervention

This is my dear friend and colleage, Christy.  Christy was diagnosed a little over 6 years ago with colon cancer.  She had one colon surgery and full course of chemo.  She was totally sick during the chemo.  About a year later, there was a second occurance of the cancer and she had more colon removed, [...]

call to pray……..and even more

This is to all who are ready to stand in the gap.  Ch Gb is still very, very sick.  I just spoke with her and she sounded even worse.  She had a bad night last night, with her oxygen level dropping to 80 after walking just to the nurses station.  She said they have done xrays and [...]

Valentine Banquet….(highschool memories)

Last night was our church’s Valentine banquet.  It’s really not much about Valentines day, especially is it was almost 2 weeks after Valentines Day.  The purpose of the banquet is really to raise funds for the youth for summer camp.  This year the theme was School Spirit.  They went all out with a school bus, [...]

blue tongue

This one is just for you Stacey.  Just look at this little angel!

Selah…..for real.

Well, we hear about it, we know it happens, but we never believe it will happen to US or anyone WE know.  But this week, many of us waited, hopeful, praying, believing, –for a dear sister to hear the ominous news that her biopsy revealed breast cancer—–my dear 30 something sister.   The news had me stunned for [...]

Some of the chicks I hung out with

Birthday Girl!!!

Sorry it took me so long to post this picture.  Celebration time.  It is so good to celebrate life!  On this planet, we tend to do this on an annual basis (at least until the number reaches a certain point).  But, since every day is a gift, I want to become better at  celebrating life on [...]

Something in the air…

I took the dog out early this morning…around 6am and I got sooo excited.  Not because I was taking the dog out but because I sensed a hint of fresh autumn air.  We may have a few more really hot humid days but ladies, it’s a comin’!!!  I don’t know about you but I am [...]

Had a good cry lately??

Have you ever just felt like you needed to have a good cry but you just really didn’t have anything good (or bad rather) to cry about?  Well…that is how I am feeling tonight.  I wish I could have a good roll around on the bed, exhausting cry.  Before anyone thinks there is something major [...]

Following His example…..

Sunday night, July 1, our sister obediently followed the example set by Jesus and was baptized.  I thought I would print this picture because I knew some of you couldn’t be there.  SC. we are rejoicing with you!
LOL -  2bc girls

FREE!!!!

I am feeling happy, peaceful, thankful…my heart is full.  Gratitude. Honor. Respect.  Thinking of our troops.  Praying. Support.  Admiration.  Praise God I am free!!!!  Not only living in a free country but truly FREE through the shed blood of Jesus and I already have a mansion prepared for me in Heaven.  Now that makes my [...]

Struck down but not destroyed…

Wow…what a yucky, depressing and exhausting week it has been for me.  The week started off with Grace having the stomach bug and even though she didn’t get sick through the night…every time she moved I jumped up afraid she was going to (ya’ll mom’s know what I am talking about).  She was fine by [...]

Eagles…

Ok…so I have discovered Karen Kingsbury, a christian writer and have already read 5 of her books since vacation.  Anyway, I am reading one called “A Time to Dance” right now and just had to share this food for thought.  We all know that the bible references eagles a number of times.  One of my [...]
